命令文と命令型反語文の考察─韓‧日両国語の対照を中心に─

Abstract

This study focused on <Imperative rhetorical-sentences> that convey negative commands while taking the form of positive Imperatives in Korean and Japanese Imperatives, and considered their semantic functions and syntactic features. In terms of semantic functions, Korean and Japanese <imperative rhetorical-sentences> are used to <prevent> unrealized situations, or to <stop> and <prevent recurrence> of situations that had been realized or have been realized in front of a speaker. It was confirmed that the syntactic feature has the rhetorics by replacing the polarities of affirmative and negative as common to Korean and Japanese. In the case of Korean, <imperative rhetorical-sentences> are created productively by combining the adverb "그만/작작" and the affirmative command form, and the corresponding Japanese is "V/N + (の)もほどほどにしろ((no)mo hodohodoni shiro)」". It also was suggested that the Japanese "V/N + (の)もいい加減にしろ((no)mo iikagenni shiro)", which is an imperative rhetorical-sentence, means equal to the sentence pattern in Korean "그만(gman)/작작(jagjag)/적당히(jeokdanghi) + affirmative command form".
